A Look Back At Past MTX Greats...

From the simple beginnings of building speakers from a rural garage over 40 years ago to becoming one of the Nation's largest U.S. manufacturers of high performance car, marine, atv/utv, personal and home audio products. MTX Audio has maintained the vision, leadership, and dedication of Founder and CEO Loyd Ivey under the Mitek Corporation name.

Ivey began his company in 1971, aptly named Ivey Electronics, and after a merger with American Case Company in 1974 American Acoustic Labs, or AAL, was born. Soon thereafter MiTek Corporation was founded as the umbrella company to a vast assortment of diverse and innovative audio companies. To this day Ivey remains the visionary leader and driving force behind the MiTek family of companies.

1979 ushered in the MiTek acquisition Matrecs, a manufacturer of mobile audio products which became known as MTX Audio in 1983. As the founding company under the MiTek umbrella, MTX Audio offers the broadest selection of consumer products in the MiTek family.

Since its creation, MTX has been the innovator of some of the now standard audio ideas, including inventing the first mobile audio enclosure in 1984. Ivey continued to expand MiTek in 1983 through development and acquisitions including Magnum, creator of the first-ever vented/sealed hybrid enclosures, allowing the customer to choose how their music should sound.

RFL 15" SPL Competition Subwoofer - ~ 2001

18+ Lb of Magnet!

RFL Competition Subwoofer

A fine line between Genius & Insanity

The RFL152 is designed for just one purpose. SPL competition - the most extreme car audio sport on the planet. There's only one way to win. You've got to be the biggest and the baddest. The one with the most LOUD. The RFL152 is without a doubt the rudest, most intense, subwoofer ever invented. There's nothing elegant about it. It's aggressive, obnoxious and totally over the top. At 15" and 56 pounds with 4.35" of total, peak-to-peak excursion, it's a die-cast monstrosity of pure ear-blisterin', meter-peggin' aggression.

For years, our MTX ThunderForce Team of car builders have provided gorgeous, magazine-ready custom cars featuring lavish audio systems (of course!) that set many SPL world records as they dominated competitions. Today, our ThunderForce Team of audio experts continues the MTX tradition rocking car shows, races and audio events around the world showing off our subs, speakers and amps...
